WHAT IT DOES

What domain_register does on CoWork OS

AI agents use domain_register to commit financial operations through CoWork OS, usually the final step of a payment, billing, or trading workflow. A call moves real money.

RISK

Why domain_register is rated Critical

Registering a domain name involves entering a financial contract with a domain registrar, incurring costs (typically annual fees). This constitutes committing a financial obligation, placing it in the Financial category. Misuse could result in unauthorized purchases and recurring charges. The mandatory user approval step mitigates but does not eliminate risk.

From the tool's definition 'Register a domain name' — domain registration is a paid service that commits financial obligations (recurring fees). 'Requires user approval before proceeding' confirms the sensitive nature.

RECOMMENDED RULE

domain_register Approval-gated

Any call to domain_register is blocked until a human approves it. The rest of the server keeps working.
